Photo: 1 year after Nyanya bomb blast, road leading to the place still barricaded

One year after Nyanya bomb blast, security operatives still barricade the road going up Nyanya flyover, causing motorists of Mararaba, Nyanya, Karu, Jikwoyi and environs untold hardship. The Nyanya park has been relocated to the roadside by the market, causing heavy traffic gridlock, especially in the morning rush hour. Please kindly use your blog to help us appeal to relevant authorities for the road and the park to be reopened.

It didn't take five days before reopening Emab plaza after the bomb explosion there, so why is this one different? We have suffered too much on account of this. Imagine spending four hours in traffic for a journey that ordinarily takes ten to fifteen minutes. By the time one gets to work, it's already 10-11am, depending on when one leaves the house. Exhaustion and tension then renders one less effective for that day. In the long run, this affects the nation's GDP, since productivity is reduced. Thanks in anticipation that you will share our plight with the world to hear.
